My response about the goal that was waived off in the Pens Rangers game was full of sarcasm in case you couldn't tell. Obviously the NHL would like to see Crosby go further just like they'd like to see the Canadiens get there to boost business. I'm by no means stupid when it comes to hockey. I understand the way things work. NHL with Crosby and Habs in the Finals > NHL with Rangers and Flyers in Finals. Thats the way it seams. My fanhood doesn't need questioning pal.

thats all i was getting it..everyone knows who the nhl wants in the finals and it just seemed like that was affecting the game
but anyway...big gametonight
but unluckily i got finals tomorrow....o well LET'S GO FLYERS!! BACK WITH A VENGEANCE!!!

Didnt really notice but the only thing I can think of is how bad the ice is in San Jose....They've had problems with the ice at HP Pavillion foryears.

That's not even the issue...Even if the puck went in first it wouldn't matter...It depends on when the official has the intent to blow thewhistle so I'm not even mad at that....I'm mad because the whistle should have never been blown in the first place...

Big game tonight in Philly....Go Flyers I guess.......I know I am a Ranger fan and I should hate the Flyers but I really dont mind them....And I can'tstand the arrogant fans in Montreal so that helps my decision...
 
Wings need to grab a strangle hold on this series tonight. They have to play this game like it is Game 7. Crush the Analanche and their hopes.
 
I think they got pissed at whatshisnuts for throwing the octopus and talkin junk before the game in game two.

The Pepsi Center (is it still called that? I can never keep up with anything but the Joe and MSG anymore) will be jumping tonight, I'm sure. Especiallyafter DMac got into a fight last game... Reminicent of 97 all over again? I think not... But this'll do.

@ the last 2 pages or so
 
So far its a good game. Lots of intensity, good goaltending, Biron has looked real sharp, I'm surprised because any other game excluding the playoffs helooks mediocre at best
 
3-2 Canadiens thanks to a 5 minute powerplay..........I expect this thread to jump about 3 pages after the game

wow that first goal was BS, it was clearly not across the line

NHL def wants the Habs to move on to the finals

Sarcasm?.........please tell me it was
 
The last few pages have been comedy lol. Bad game by Price tonight. That's a risk you run with a young goalie, a couple week goals and now they're down2-1. Tomorrow nights game should be pretty fun to watch. Detroit has been clicking and well lets just say "the PosterBoy" and his team are doingfairly well.


edit: found this this morning and thought it was pretty funny

They're just guys having fun I don't think it's that big of a deal IMO, thankfully the media didn't somehow blow this up
ohwell.gif
 
i like rangers' scoring chances so far. playing aggressive and making opportunities

good pressure on fleury, but they really need to watch out for the quick offensive charge by the penguins. they have some great skaters
 
Hossa looked like Manny Ramirez doing his head first slide into second base last year lol. (I'll post vid if nobody knows what im talking about). I havebeen to a few AHL games and I have to say they are as fun if not more than an NHL game. More things for the fans, more family friends, and a helluva lotcheaper. Needless to say they are all guys trying to get to the big show and I think its hysterical what the captain did lol.
 
wow intense game right now

they need to clear benches and just get it over with

can't let the penguins chump people on ny ice

that was a goal. absolutely
